Fast Food
快餐
In present-day China, fast food is so popular, especially among children and teenagers, that it can be seen in every big and medium-sized city. It’s even difficult to think of any other single thing that represents the fast pace of modern society in the way that fast food does. Some people think it is very convenient and saves a lot of time. The trends of modern society seem to all point to one ultimate goal—saving time, and fast food well serves this purpose. In their opinions, its popularity is also attributed to the restaurants’ clean and cozy environment, excellent service, and guaranteed quality of food and drinks.
在当今的中国,快餐非常受欢迎,尤其是儿童和青少年，这在每一个大、中型城市中都可以看出来。很难想到除了快餐还有别的任何其他单一的事物能代表现代社会的快节奏。有些人认为快餐很方便而且为他们节约了很多时间。现代社会的潮流似乎都指向一个终极目标，那就是节约时间,快餐正好迎合了这个目标。他们认为快餐的流行也归因于餐厅干净、舒适的环境,优质的服务,有质量保证的食物和饮料。
However, others maintain that fast food is usually low in nutrition and can’t be regarded as a balanced diet. For example, doctors suggest that people, especially children, eat fast food as little as possible. Besides, although cooking at home is time-consuming and the following washing-up tiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body needs and likes.
然而,另外一些人认为快餐通常是低营养、不能视为均衡饮食。例如，医生建议人们，特别是孩子，尽可能少吃快餐。此外,虽然在家里做饭是耗时的,而且洗碗也很无聊，但它给你的身体提供了所需并喜欢的健康、美味食物。
As far as I’m concerned, fast food is not my best choice. For one thing, I prefer traditional spicy Chinese food. For another, being engaged in the work all day, I may spend one or two hours to prepare my favorite dishes to ensure myself a nice rest. As a result, fast food is only a good choice when I am in a hurry and resort to it once in a while.
在我看来,快餐不是我最好的选择。首先,我喜欢传统的的中国菜。另一方面,从事一整天的工作,我可能会花一两个小时来准备我最喜欢的菜来确保自己得到很好的休息。因此,快餐仅仅是我匆忙和度假时的好选择。
